The Ivar Dwarf Priest hammer appears incomplete as if it didn't get enough plastic in the mold. Perhaps this is a short shot. See pic of my mini's hammer compared to a completed example. Q: Is this common for Reaper Bones minis? Do people usually seek a replacement or use green stuff to sculpt up the missing portion? The Anirion Elf Wizard has a strange curtain effect between the staff and the robe. Unsure if this mini was sculpted like this or if this is also a mold-making error. See pic of situation. Q: How would you approach this strange nether land of material between the staff and the robe? Carve out what should be a gap? Paint a vertical black 'gap'? Other? Thank you for helping a new Reaper painter. Edit: Q: Should we still follow the 150k image size limit per rules, or do y'all usually post a little better resolution?

Couldn't find a better thread to post this in. Has anyone else ever had mold grow on their minis? I have a set of bones that have been sitting around for about two year. They were super glued to a reaper base. Baking soda and super glue were used to blend the integrated base into the round base. There's also a layer of cheap craft paint as primer. These guys have been sitting on my painting table in a former sun-room for about two years. I noticed the bases had yellowed a bit, which I've begun to notice on some of my other older bases using baking soda as a basing material. But when I checked on them I noticed small fuzzy looking orange tufts. I can only assume this is mold. The only things I could think of to cause this are the baking soda or the water used to clean my brush before priming. Has anyone else seen this?

I need help preventing the sponge in my wet pallet from molding. I'm using distilled water. The penny thing hasn't helped. I'm not sure what to try next.

I always love being reminded that we belong to one of the oldest traditions. Yes, this mini is 3,400 years old. And it came from a mold. And knowing what I know about ancient relics such as this, I would guess it once boasted bright colors. http://www.cnn.com/2016/02/25/middleeast/israel-boy-finds-ancient-figurine/index.html
